No Time to Die, by Billie Eilish and Finneas
I should have known
I'd leave alone
Just goes to show
That the blood you bleed is just the blood you
owe
We were a pair
But I saw you there
Too much to bear
You were my life, but life is far away from fair
Was I stupid to love you?
Was I reckless to help?
Was it obvious to everybody else?
That I'd fallen for a lie
You were never on my side
Fool me once, fool me twice
Are you death or paradise?
Now you'll never see me cry
There's just no time to die
I let it burn
You're no longer my concern, mmm
Faces from my past return
Another lesson yet to learn
That I'd fallen for a lie
You were never on my side
Fool me once, fool me twice
Are you death or paradise?
Now you'll never see me cry
There's just no time to die

Local accents aside, standard American English has a rule that guides the pronunciation of simple past regular verbs. According to this rule, the “ed” may be pronounced as listed in Column 1. About that, match the correct pronunciation of “ed” in Column 1 to the verbs in Column 2.
Column 1
1. /t/.
2. /d/.
3. /ɪd/.
Column 2
( ) started (l. 11).
( ) happened (l. 15).
( ) finished (l. 29).
The correct order of filling the parentheses, from top to bottom, is:
Analyse the statements below about the excerpt “I think that actually made it easier for us. We always write the quickest when we have a story or we're writing about something that's happened.” (l. 14-15).
I. “Easier” is a comparative form of the adjective “easy”, and it is written this way because the spelling rule for short adjectives ending in consonant + y is to drop the y and add ier.
II. “Quickest” is a comparative form of the adverb “quick”, and it is written this way because the spelling rule for short adverbs in general is to add est.
III. If “easier” were replaced by a long adjective like “beautiful,” its comparative form would be “more beautiful”.
Which statements are correct?
Analyse the contractions 1 to 4 indicated by the apostrophes in the excerpts below and the context of the sentences in the article:
• We'd (1) always wanted to write a Bond song. (l. 04).
• We'd (2) been writing motifs and thinking of melodies for a couple of years (l. 05).
• We're (3) writing about something that's (4) happened (l. 15).
